  Thank you to our London staff for donating their pre-loved children’s books - we’ve collected over 70 books over the past two weeks which we’ll be donating to Children's Book Project.   This is the second time we’ve run a book drive in conjunction with our charity partner Bookmark Reading Charity which does such great work in improving literacy in young children.   Currently 1 in 7 primary schools in the UK does not have a designated reading space, rising to 1 in 6 in disadvantaged communities, and 1 in 4 children leave primary school unable to read well.   By encouraging our staff to donate their pre-loved books, we are delighted to play a small part in helping address this issue and inspire reading in children.

  Resilience as a source of value. Rob Collins, our Managing Partner and Head of North American Infrastructure, shares his perspective in the latest issue of Infrastructure Investor, on how transport investors are adapting to a more volatile operating environment. As climate volatility, cyber threats and policy shifts reshape the landscape, the conversation is moving beyond simple risk mitigation. Rob emphasises that preventing cybercrime is a collective effort, with cross-sharing of intelligence key to protecting long-term assets. He also highlights the importance of backing essential businesses with bipartisan support - helping insulate portfolios from sudden policy shifts. As the article notes, resilience is increasingly seen as a source of value in its own right. Thanks Barclay Ballard for the engaging discussion. https://lnkd.in/eUkBnTnu

  Earlier this week, we hosted our 3i CTO webinar focused on cyber security, bringing together c.30 technology leaders from across our Private Equity and Infrastructure portfolios.   The discussion centred on the reality of modern cyber risk, the increasingly sophisticated threats, the operational impact of incidents as well as some of the more positive recent trends, for example the savings from Security AI and automation as well as an increase in breaches being detected internally. CTOs shared recent first-hand experiences, practical mitigation strategies and lessons learned in strengthening resilience. We also reflected on feedback and emerging trends from recent cyber workshops held across the portfolio, highlighting a continued focus on governance, employee awareness and third-party risk management.   Thank you to all participants for an open and highly constructive discussion.
